Changing a child’s mother tongue or notifying the communication language

As the child’s guardian, you can submit the child’s mother tongue or communication language using the online form.

Consents

  • The notification requires written consent from all the child’s guardians.
  • You also need the child’s own written consent if you submit the notification on behalf of a child who is 15 years or older.

A person who has turned 15

Once you have turned 15, you can submit the information yourself on the Personal Data page in Suomi.fi if you have your own strong authentication tool (such as online banking credentials).
